(10me, all you Batchellors so brave, that spend your time in Cupids Court,) And with your complements do crave with many ladies for to sport:I am contrary to your mind, I court but one, and shes unkind,Sites vtrluous, chaste, and if there be a Phcenix in the world, tis she. I little thought I ever could by any beauty ere be won, Nor can I now, if that I would, remove my mind on any one ; No wealth, no beauty, nor no face, my fixed thoughts from her disgrace, Shes vertuous, chaste, and if there be a Phcenix in the world, lis she. I must confess : I am in love, although I thought I never could,But sure she was sent from above, and made of Natures cheifest mould,So pure, so fair, and all divine, Ile quit the world to make her mine ;She vertuous, chaste, and if there be a Phoenix in the world, tis she. 24 *** Fancys Phoenix is given here in connection with the ballad on p. 4, Tradesmans Complaint, sung to the same tune; and this also bringson p. 44, Fancys Favourite
